Marriage: A Man-Made Chain

Marriage is a man-made chain made by man through the self-centred love consciousness to bind him down to a way of life which, in most cases, goes against My plan. Even when it is not against My plan for the present, as one develops in his or her consciousness towards the soul, or the soul is evolved more and more towards Me, the disparity between the two partners widens. Many a time, when this disparity is not settled amicably, it leads to a breakdown of the marriage in one way or another.

This is a general rule, but there are exceptions also, which are due to the compatibility leading to the union of the two souls and not temperaments.
